"shaking hands w/ man (priest; not in black and facing away from cam" - that's Herbert Ryle, the then Dean of Westminster.
Narrowing down the clip's current date range of 1918-1929........... the tomb of the Unknown Warrior wasn't unveiled until 1920. Secondly, Herbert Ryle left Westminster through ill health in late 1924. The date range can therefore safely be amended to 1920-24.

I've just found this same footage in clip 276.07. It dates the year as being 1922.
